description Background: This study assessed the implementation of the Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) program in Cebu using the Provus Discrepancy Evaluation Model. The evaluation compared the actual program implementation with the ideal parameters set by the World Health Organization (WHO) CBR standards, identifying discrepancies. Methods: A quantitative descriptive-evaluative research design was employed, with two respondent groups: program implementers and program clients, ensuring data triangulation. Data were gathered through one-on-one interviews, using WHO’s 2004 standardized guidelines and indicators from the International Disability and Development Consortium (IDDC) as the evaluation framework. Key components assessed included health, education, livelihood, empowerment, and social aspects. Results: The study identified discrepancies across these five CBR components, primarily attributed to limited resources and expertise available for service delivery. In the Philippine context, most indicators under health and education were effectively implemented, successfully enhancing the lives of persons with disabilities and their families. However, the livelihood, empowerment, and social components showed significant gaps, with several indicators or services yet to be fully implemented. Conclusion: These findings underscore the need for resource allocation and capacity-building to improve these critical areas of the CBR program.
